Wow thats very interesting. I always wonder that as bass fishing becomes more and more popular if this will shape the spawning habits of largemouth. It only makes sense that in pressured lakes from an evolutionary standpoint for the bigger smarter fish to spawn deeper and deeper... Away from sightfisherman. Maybe in a few hundred years large mouth won't even come up shallow to spawn, because the ones that did end up getting there genetics wiped out...
